The Southeast Iowa Flaming Marshmallows Special Olympics Team has athletes from Davis, Henry, Jefferson, Wapello, Washington & Van Buren Counties and is open for athletes from ages 8-100 with practice held in Fairfield and Mt. Pleasant.
Athletes can choose what event they want to do and do not have to do them all. Currently our team competes in:
- Softball (Summer)
- Football (Fall Classic)
- Bowling (Fall)
- Snow Shoe (Winter Games)
- Basketball, Cheerleading, Powerlifting (Spring Classic)
- Bocce, Soccer and Track & Field (Summer Games).
There are lots of other sports, just like the Olympics, and we are adding them based on interest, each year. This year we hope to add Volleyball (Fall Classic). We choose what our athletes want to do.
We have practices in two cities to make it easier on our athletes and travel.
- Mt Pleasant, Mondays at 5:30-6:30 pm September thru May at Van Allen School/IWU Gym
- Fairfield, Thursdays at 5:30-6:30 pm September thru May at Fairfield Park & Rec./Pence School
Summer practices are held in Fairfield and rotate based on sport.
